Douglas TF info wanted

[Peter C]

Hi there. I've just bought a Douglas TF, a copy of the 1950s MG TF. I think these might be quite rare as Wikipedia says only 15 were made. I believe that most were based on the Triumph Herald/Vitesse chassis and running gear, however, mine is the Ford Escort Mk1/2 option. Can members confirm the low production numbers? Wiki suggests the Escort version had a chassis developed by Douglas. Is this true? Finally, are there any other Douglas TFs out there. A bit about me: I have made a Jago Geep, Robin Hood Srs III and a Banham Sprint and restored various military Jeeps and Land Rovers. Photo of the TF is included.

One assumes thatyou have looked at the literature links in the Wikipedia, like the Steve Hole A to Z book, perhaps not because of the cost. Some car shows on TV seem to be able to let the viewers know how many of car type are still on the road, also classic car magazines ... so how do they find out?  The .gov.uk site has a page where you can start making an enquiry
